Very cool! [righton] sorry to get wayyy off subject, but my eyes seemed to automatically lock onto your sig.... 1024 ram? Is that possible? with a laptop? whatever, im confused

2 x 512mb ram = 1024

it's okay we know you do maths next year [bustagut] [bustagut] [bustagut]

I know that sue, but some computer's can't hold that much (they wont use that much) even if you can fit two 512mb ram chips in there

Powermac 7300 is a desktop machine; date 1997. Started with 16Mb, but I got them to fit 64. Built up over the years... The 7300 is supposed to take maximum of 512 (8 slots x 64Mb) but.... it will take (unsupported by Apple) 1024 (8 slots of 128Mb). Eventually I may get something to run OS X (maybe the G5DP...) but the 7300 has done me well so far. It now has xlr8 500 processor instead of the original Apple 166, a Firewire card (for the scanner) and a USB card (for the new printer). I bought it because it was the only one I could afford that was upgradeable (and because my wife said she thought one computer would do, wouldn't it? (Rhetorical question on her part).

Should last. My brother has some old LCIIIs in his office that still work. "You give them a job and then leave them humming away in the corner getting on with it." Never chuck nothing out if it ain't broke!
